  • ppt had no way of generating md5 sums
  • Following NetBSD sum, add an -a option for checksum algorithm
  • Keep the current meaning of -o [1-2] for old1 and old2
  • Follow NetBSD and select crc algorithm using -a crc, not -o 0
  • Move logic for selecting correct algorithm out of argument loop
  • update POD
  • md5 output tested against md5sum command on my system
